AI poem and committee swapping: How Utah Republicans helped an anti-vote-by-mail bill get traction Republican lawmakers manipulated Utah’s legislative process to ensure a bill that would impose new restrictions on mail-in ballots would gain traction in the Legislature.

GOP Rep. Jefferson Burton admitted he moved his bill targeting mail-in voting from one committee where it was floundering to an unrelated committee for no reason other than to give it a better chance of moving forward.
β€œThat’s how sausage is made up here,” Burton said.
